mother hubbard! I tried to download it but it only works with OS 10.7.4 or higher. Goddammit Apple! (I understand this might seem like an extreme reaction, but I only just got updated to OS 10.6 ... well, I guess it was actually about a year ago, but still.)

I'd say don't take anything personally. My mom started dating my stepfather when I was 13. He wasn't very nice to me but I wasn't very nice to him either. A lot of it was him 'ruining' my relationship with my mother. Some of that was obviously perceived.

Thanks! That's what I'm kinda expecting, himself thinks otherwise, it's hard for me to judge, having not met the kids yet. He reckons they'll take to me and just be happy he's happy. Kiddo says it's fine by him, he's into his music and art so my job maybe helped create a good impression, and his Dad showed him one of my images being used by a musician on ticketmaster atm. I've met people's kids before and never had a problem, I'm just nervous cos this guy means so much to me.

I was 13 when my dad had his first major relationship after he and my mom broke up. I absolutely adored his girlfriend and we rarely had squabbles. I actually invited her to my wedding, though they had been broken up for many years, but are still friends.

I was checking craiglist and found my landlords had placed an ad for the house we are currently in. We are moving... not a worry. But they are listing it as a 4 bedroom. I have no idea where this 4th bedroom would be.

Thanks! They've only been separated a year and I'll be his first girlfriend (at all). I'm just worried the kids will feel threatened in any way. His daughter has her mother's rather fierce temperament and is a real tween, I have a feeling she may be the tender spot in the whole thing. As long as they don't all hate me, that would be awful! It'll be a wee while before I meet them, he's not telling the youngest two until after Crimbo.

You guys: Provamel hazelnut milk is officially the Best Thing Ever. I had never seen it for sale before - apparently it's new here in the Netherlands. I bought it just to try it, and I'm totally sold after the first sip. Just made hot cocoa with it, which is even better. Also, I had trouble keeping myself from typing this in all-caps.
